West Coast Resorts:
Kidd's Beach (to the south-west), is named after Charles Kidd, a former mayor of King William's
Town. Very popular with anglers, boardsailors and surfers, it is renowned for its sandy
beach and tidal pool.
A great variety of fish can be caught off the rocks. In the same area, through
hills covered with a considerable variety of bush, shallow valleys that are attractively
wooded, one finds at the mouths of Igoda and Gulu rivers
famous angling venues, fine stretches of beach and open areas to relax and be part of
nature.
Not far away, Cove Rock, Fullers Bay and Shelly Beach
are all popular fishing spots.
East Coast Resorts:
Northwards along the coast, the natural scenery becomes more land more
like the Transkei Wild Coast. The unspoilt resorts areas of Sunrise-on-Sea,
Rainbow Valley, Kwelera are excellent for fishing and picnics.
In addition, Glen Eden, Yellow Sands and Cefane
offer accommodation and camping sites.
Cintsa West/East is a complex of resorts overlooking Cintsa Bay
and lagoon, where various water sports can be enjoyed all year round.
A small coastal village, Haga-Haga, looks out at the sea from the
foot of two hills. A spacious beach at the river mouth provides lively fishing
and is a good area for collecting sea shells.
Morgan Bay, on the southern banks of the Incarha
River, is just 7 km from the unspoilt Transkei Wild Coast region.
There are splendid opportunities for walks along the beach and into the bordering
sand dune forests.
Further west a nature reserve is situated at the mouth
of two rivers, aptly known as Double Mouth. On the southern
bank at the mouth of the Great Kei River, fringed by coastal
forests, is the delightful resort town of Kei Mouth.
There are facilities for bathing, water sports and fishing, while the town boasts shops,
a post office, a library and a shell museum with specimens from
the world over.
A pontoon ferry transports you across the Kei River to the rest of the Wild Coast region.
